I thought it'd be nice for the rest of the world to have a de-america'd instance where there's no discussion of america, certainly no american politics, and no americans are allowed via IP block.

But I think to do that effectively, you'd probably have to defederate from most of the rest of lemmy, and then you've lost most of the federation benefits of being a lemmy instance. However I'm only vaguely familiar with how all of the connections work so maybe someone can correct me.

you need people to shitpost. unfortunately that means the USaians and their fucking constant barrage of political failure news.

Nothing wrong with the yanks, but their constant news that overtake any other things happening around the world is fucking annoying.

I mean by default. the point is your country is fucked up, but there's nothing inherently wrong with one just because they're from the states
